| | | Title: | | | | Volume/Number: | 2001 April | | | Issuing Agency: | | | | Description: | Also known as direct-drive, drive-point or direct-push, push-driven technology refers to tools used to investigate sites by driving, pushing, and/or vibrating small-diameter hollow steel rods into the ground. Sampling tools can be attached to the end of the steel rods to collect soil, soil-gas and groundwater samples. For purposes of this fact sheet, push-driven technology also includes push-driven equipment that is capable of using an auger tool (similar to that used for a conventional monitoring well) to install pre-pack monitoring wells. | | | Date Created: | 04 24 2001 | | | Agency ID: | | | | ISL ID: | 000000040291 Original UID: 20483 FIRST WORD: Use | |
| | Title: | | | | Volume/Number: | | | | Issuing Agency: | | | | Description: | Illinois EPAs Used Tire Program is recognized nationally as a leader in the management of used and waste tires. Prior to passage of the Used Tire Management Act in 1992, little reuse or recycling of waste tires occurred in Illinois. Through the efforts of the Illinois EPA and the other state agencies funded through the Used Tire Management Fund (via the tire user fee assessed to retail customers), more than one million waste tires are removed from dump sites annually and there currently are markets in Illinois that exceed the approximately 13 million used tires generated annually in Illinois. The signing of a significant piece of legislation in the summer of 2003 brought additional resources to Illinois Used Tire Program. Public Act 93-32 increased the tire user fee to $2.50 per tire sold at retail and will result in broader and more efficient used and waste tire removal efforts and better vector control measures at the state and local level. | | | Date Created: | | | | Agency ID: | | | | ISL ID: | 000000041002 Original UID: NA for serial records FIRST WORD: Used | |

| | Title: | | | | Volume/Number: | 2003 March | | | Issuing Agency: | | | | Description: | Used tires are a breeding source for mosquitoes, providing an ideal incubator for mosquito eggs and larvae. Adult mosquitoes lay eggs in improperly discarded tires filled with rainwater and organic materials (leaves and grass). Over the course of one breeding season, hundreds of mosquitoes can be generated from just one tire. | | | Date Created: | 07 13 2006 | | | Agency ID: | | | | ISL ID: | 000000040515 Original UID: 20678 FIRST WORD: Used | |
